Carcassonne

The so-called "planning" phase of the journey took us only up to the moment when we stepped off the boat and planted foot back on land. After that ... freefalling.

From here on, we have:

* no hotel reservations.
* no previously-agreed-upon direction to head in.
* no plan.

Only our rental car, our wits, and our wicked navigational skillz to see us through.

So after consulting out map, we decided to head to Carcassonne:


Carcassonne is a fortified French town ...





inhabited exclusively by witches ...


and nothing is allowed inside except blind people ...


not even cheeseburgers.





Once someone tried to bring a cheeseburger inside and the witches put a spell on him and locked him in the stockade and put a wig on him and turned him into plastic.




Carcassonne is a place where ungovernable youths run amok and gore their elders with the vile implements of war:


It is a place of vicious circles.

Inside the walls of the city, within the inner sanctum, are many beautiful relics:


Faces, terrifying and beatific:




Carcassonne!
